We were there in January 2020. Thanks for letting me know that they are taking units off line. It is frustrating but good that renovations are happening.

We go to a Kihei every year and love the area. It is true that the resort is sadly in need of renovations. Many unit items are no longer available..kettles, tea pots, housekeeping every week if you are there a long time is no longer an option.
I am trying to book for later this year and the website says that bookings are unavailable at this time. What is this all about? Never happened before. Does anyone know what is going on?

Just to put my two cents in we stayed at Kihei resort a while back, we have been there before, I killed 37 roaches in the room and had the bug guy there three times! The resort is very dirty stains all over the side walks, they say they cant clean them because the are so full all the time! Where are our dues going then?

Wow, hope your found someone to take them. They use to have chairs and such to borrow (they usually hid them away and loaned them out if you agreed to an owner update}. Guess COVID stopped that, too?

Because Kihei has no sharing room or closet we have a number of items we bought that we would like pass on to another member on 4/19/21. We have 3 bikes, 3 helmets, 3 boogie boards and two beach chairs. All bought less than two weeks ago since our arrival in Kihei. There were no bike rentals available at the time so we bought bikes, helmets, boogie boards, chairs at Costco and Target. We would love to share the cost with someone or pass it on if we can. email me at sgacioch@hotmail.com if interested.

Re: Questions on comparing our WM Kihei vs. WM Valley Isle

The Kihei resort is considerably larger then the Valley Isle resort. The main difference would be the location. I've not stayed in the Valley Isle, but have stayed in a couple RCI exchanges very near it. I've stayed at Worldmark Kihei several times and love the location there, too. Although most of the units are a pretty good walk from the beach, but if you don't mind walking it's in a pretty walkable area. Love the public beaches across the street from the resort and it's not too far of a walk to shops and restaurants in Kihei. Although I personally prefer the more residential feel of the Kihei area, I did enjoy staying up in the Valley Isle area, too. As for the actual rooms, we've had no complaints with the WM Kihei units we've stayed in. I noticed a few complaints about smelly rooms, but we didn't have that problem. But it has been about 3 years since we stayed there. Was suppose to be there this past March, but that didn't happen! I wouldn't hesitate staying at either resort.

Looking to book Maui June 29th - July 6th 2021 - 3 bedroom. I know this is FAR fetched however, Corona decided to pay my family a few visits and now it's recovery time. Does anyone have reservations that they will not be using during this time?Please feel free to Email wcampos_1@Juno.com or Text 707-880-4343
I appreciate it very much. Stay Safe & Healthy

Does anyone know if the smell, musty or moldy room situation has been resolved at this resort? I'm trying to book a 60 surprise birthday trip for someone special and they have asthma -- I can't risk getting there and having this issue. Is the other WM resort- Valley Isle have the same issue?
Thank you in advance for your help everyone.
Sincerely, Bella

I am angry that I have to try to book resorts like Kihei 13 months in advance, but can go to VRBO and see units in Worldmark Kihei available in the next month or two. I do not believe owners should be allowed to rent out their units using sites like VRBO. I would like the directors to change the bylaws to make secondary renting like this illegal. It is one thing to rent your unit out to a friend or family, but not through another website.

I have played all the courses except for private ones. The very best deal and the closest course to WM in Kihei is Maui Nui, right up the road. They have packages depending on how often you want to play. The best time is in the morning before the trade winds blow. Great course and good bar. Friendly staff and be sure to tip the guys how get your cart and load your clubs. If you rent clubs check out Maui golf in the Longs Drug parking lot.

We just checked out on Saturday: The smell was horrible: I called the office and they brought in an ozone machine and we had to leave the room for an hour: We stayed gone for a few hours and there was no change: I called the office each day and they did the same with no change in smell. They also did a dry shampoo and cleaned the filter on the A\C again with no change: I told them in the morning we woke up with headaches and were coughing. They let us check out other rooms in the same building as well as one other building: No change: They pit the machine in the room each day: I called the Owner Services and they said I needed to deal with local management. My only options with local management was change rooms or have the ozone machine each day.
I spoke with several staff members and they all said because the units are old and have carpet that moisture in the air and carpets not drying after being shampooed.
. I called Owner Services again and got a different manager that was kind of rude. She kept telling me she could not help until I checked out. I asked over and over what would happen if I checked out like would I lose my points or could they help me find a different property. She would not give me an answer except telling me to deal with local management or wait to see what they would do until I checked out. Since no one would give me a better option we stayed. We slept with the balcony door open and the fan on each night even though it was hot. After we checked out I called Owner Services and they said they had to call the resort to verify my story and see what they offered to do for me. After placing me on hold all they would do is offer my housekeeping token back. He said if I would have told local management I wasn't satisfied they would have had to dealt with it. I did seek help each day from local management and was never satisfied. I also called Owner Services and they would not advise me what to do. I said if I left am taking the chance of losing points and money as I would have had to get a hotel out of pocket. After arguing back and forth for almost 30 minutes
they said I would have to write a letter or they will close the case. I am so angry and have no idea if we were breathing mold for five nights. Owner Services even tried to argue that there was no way it could be mold. He had an answer for everything.
has anyone else ever dealt with something like this before with Worldmark?
Thank you, Diana

I am looking into booking Kihei in the future and a couple questions for the golfers out there. There are 3 courses fairly close to the resort and would like a review of what you thought of them, I don't want to go to the really expensive resort courses. I would like a reasonable course for a reasonable price that is fun and has some challenge to it. I have never been to Hawaii and from what I've seen and read this resort golf wise seems pretty good to me, correct me if I'm wrong please. I want to play probably 3 days of golf out of 7 we will be there that's why I say reasonable price so I don't break the bank. Thanks in advance and all input is appreciated.

Just wanted to say that we brought it to the attention of the office. They were VERY accommodating, and are moving us in the morning. YAY WM! Way to for us on customer service! We were told they were full when we ch caked in, so we just assumed it wouldn’t be possible. Still, I thought they should know. We were told there is a renovation coming soon, so that’s awesome!
Way to come through!

This is just a comment.
My husband and I have been to Kihei before and had a GREAT time. This visit (just got in last night) we had booked 13 months out (right at the stroke of 12!) and our room is SMELLY! I thought my nose would adjust, but it’s just not happening. It’s so incredibly musty and mildew smelling, I don’t know what to do. We’ve tried airing it out, running fans, fabric softener sheets... Ugh. I’m not super into activities, just hit the beach for a few hours a day, and then hang out around the room. The amenities of WorldMark are usually so awesome that is a vacay in and of itself. Not so certain this time.

Perhaps I am doing something wrong but I was looking for owners' perspective of this resort & what their top activities are when visiting Kihei. Also, good spots to eat, places to purchase groceries and such. Thank you.

Those of you who have units reserved, but can no longer use them, why don’t you cancel, so someone on the waitlist can have the reservation? I simply don’t understand making reservations to simply rent them to another owner. That is a unit one of us could have reserved.
